Eyes llint oro doped to early sight, Can never wtiko to weep; Nor pain, nor woe, .nor grief, nov blight, Can move that slumber deep Ears that to ovcry sound aro stillod; Cun ncvcrinoro bo stirred; With Borrow never oan bo filled, Nor pained by cruel word. So, hearts of dust ell griefs forsake, They never break nor blood; Tho living heurts that throb and ocho, Our tendor pity need. Oh! restfu' sleep! Oh, calm repose! Where all life's triuls cease, Thy silver stream forever flows To laud of perfect peaoo.

QUAILS. Soon after the children of Israel pass?e over thc Ked Sea they began to murmur bud to long for tho flesh pots of Egypt and tl.cy would gladly havo returned tc bondage if they had been permitted to di so. They might have known that ho wilt delivered them (rom captivity by stupend ous miracle would bc sure to pr?vido foi them, but human fuit li was weak thirty, four hundred years ugo, us it is now. Thc providence of Cod, perhaps without mir ado, brought thc quails ond they sol tieri mound thc camp in such vast numbers as tc supply tho multitude of people. So fur tn wo can leam from tho record, this suppl) of food lasted only for ono day. (lOiodui 1G: IS.) About u month niter this, us wt learn from Numbera ll 4-35, there arose another murmuring from tho fame cause they lopped for more quails uud Cod sen thom. This time they como in counties! millions, oud as tho sequel showed, cad quail brought with it, a rebuke from tin Lord, lt is common to this day for enor mous flights of quails to moko their wai across Arabia, Thoso which fed tin Israelites wove somewhat out of their usua course, but tho "wind from tho Lord' which brought this about, though certainly providential, that is foreseen and arrang?e for, may not have been miraculous; nor un wo to BUpposo Unit extraordinary manifesta (ions of divine power arc ever uitidc unies they uro specially oallod for, or that wha wo call tho supernatural will ever need lessly take tho placo of tho natural. Eu whether by mirado or not it was Cod win sent thc quails. Ho was displeased will tho pcopio, not, wo oro euro, bocausi they desiicd meat, but because lliey dis trusted his providence, ond while lie sup plied their wanta, he at tho samo timo pun i.ihed them for their distrust in ii wa; which was wonderful then and is wooden ful now. At that time it was not kuowi that tho flesh of quails, so delicious to lin lm,te ot first, soon becomes repulsivo to.titi appetite and iudeccl disgusting. Tho Lot? who made thc quail, mid gave its flesh thu character, indiscoverable by tho chemist which unfits it for long continued uso a food, said beforo tho quail was sent, "Y shall not cat ono day, nor two days, no live days, neither ten days, nor twent days, but even a whole month, until it com out at your nostrils, and it bo loathsom I uuto you, becauso that ye havo dcbpisoi tho Loni which is among you and hav ' wept before him soy i ot?, 'Why carno wo ou of Egypt??" Num. 1G: 19. To this doy tho flesh of tho quail rctuin tiic same peculiarity, and (hough considere a great delicacy, eau bo outcn only n intervals. It is even now a common thin among sporting men to moko bets (hot man cannot cat a quail a day for thirt consecutivo days. Tho silly exploit w believe lias been performed, though most c thc so who have attempted it havo fuilce' but (ho testimony of all who hnvo tried i is thnt in a fow days this dolioato ond ap parcntly wholesome fond becomes loathsom beyond enduranoe. Thc foolish tncti wh moko fho experiment aro little aware tba in their folly they becomo tho indorscrs c tho Mosaic record. Tho American quail ur purtridgo ng it culled, is porhaps note tho MUID species as that of thc Oricnti countries, but it is doubtless of tho som genus; certainly it has tho same mystcriou kind of flesh, nppotizing at first, and for u reason (hat WO COU ascertain, nausea t ? n afterwards. Ik-foro tho quail soason wu I over, and "while tho flesh was yet betwee their teeth, Ibo wrath of tho Lord wu kindled against them and ho smote thot with a very great plague" Num. Il: 8i 'This,- (oo, may havo been providcntii visitation without miracle. Oonorally I hi whioh is unpleasant to (ho taste is injuri? tl to health, tho palate being plaocd to stan ij?ard over tho stoutnoh, uud tho flesh t quail? cuten in ?uoli quantities muy huve iuduced disease. At any rito many of tile people died. All these phenomena wcro sont by tho providence of God to teach his pooplo ocr-' tain lcs8ou8, and if the faots wero for thom thc rooord ls for us. Whatever they should have loomed, we should (cuni. Undoubtedly, thc first und wost important lesson to learn, is that wc should ir?st trust in Providence For tho salvation of our souls wo must trust-trust in Christ; for our well being in this lifo we should trust, not directly in Christ but in Provi dence. True, thc blessings of providence aro tho purchase of tho atonement, no less than tho blessings of grace; but thc for mer wc enjoy in common with all mankind while tho latter are only for thc saints. Thut there is a distinction between them appears in this: that many who uro com placent in tho view of eternal lifo through Jesus Christ, nevertheless havo misgivings os to tho care of their II?*iiven!y Puther over them in this present lifo. Their trust passes over thc present und reaches to tho future; but trust should begin now and include within its embroco, tho things of this world us well as those of tho world to come. Tho Lord will provide. Bo not distressed ubout tho morrow. Loam les sons of diligonoo from God's book of prover! s and soy Jehovah Jireh! Another lesson lo bc learned is that of contentment. Tho Israelites had bread, tho Psalmist oulls it .'angers food." (Ps. TS:25.) lt ia described us having been very pleasant to tho tasto; and up it was prepared by A'mighty God for u special purpose wo may bc euro that it contained in itself all thc clements necessary to sup? port lifo nnd health. But thc people wore not sathlied, and to show them their folly tho Lord let them have their own way. If wo can inprove our condition hy the use of proper means it is right lo do so, hut inor dinate desire is wrong. Let ns "bc content with such things as wo have.*' Heb. 10:5. If God were to gratify all our greed we might miserably die. lt is well not to ask too often, nor too persistently, for quails. lt is liule moro than repetition to say that God hears murmurings as well ns prove?a, and that ho sometimes answers tho one as certainly us thc other. When re pining at our lot in life, und disposed to lind fault with Providence, let us remember that though our feelings bo unexpressed and kept to ourselves, God sec." tho dis satisfied heart throb and may send its penalty iii thc gratification of its desire. Gu tho other hand cheerful acquiescence ronola on the soul, thus hy natural law in vigorating for its burden and is moreover pleasing to God and will bc suro to ho re warded with his blessing. Of tho Is raelites on tl)is occasion, it is said that C id "gave then) their request, but sent leanness into their soul.'1 Ps. 10(3: 15. it is right to pray that our desires bo not gratified unless they bo suoll as God approves. ls there anything to bc learned from thc struugo and unaccountable peculiarity in thc flesh of quails}' Why should it nt onco bo KO desirable nnd so undesirable? Wc know that it is suitable for food by our own ex perience, and also by tho fact that God gave it to his people; we know in tho same way (bat it cannot bc long continued. It may bo that Cod has given it to us ns u luxury, affording occasional variety in our food, tempting to tllOSO who from physical causes arc fastidious nnd containing perhaps some principio not found in ordinary diet and which may bc, ns it were medicinal, as well as appetizing und nutritious, lt is no re ply to this to say that thc sumo quality may bo found in tho flesh of other wild fowl; for if this bo so, it shows only thut a greater variety of dainties has been pio vided for varying (estes. Is this too small u thing for divino consideration? Why then has God given us suoh u variety of vegetables nnd fruits, CHCII in ?ls SOason? And why such a variety of flowers to grati fy tho eye? It is j ont ns impossible for anything to bo too small for God's ulton tiou as it is that anything should bc too great. It is well to associate outward objects with the providences of God connected with them, und with tho lessons which God hus taught by them, livery quail is n preacher a winged messenger from heaven, that may well remind us of the experiences of tho wilderness und of our own distrust of God, and of our murmurings, nnd that from Moses until this day, nil things arc un changed.- Christian Index.
